Chapter 129 It was destined
An Zhiqiu was also filled with emotion as he hugged his sister. He was a silly boy who was busy with work one moment, and the next moment he started thinking about marriage. It seemed that he had grown up all of a sudden and had to take on different responsibilities. They were already nervous before the marriage even started. What would they do when their sister found a partner and got married?
"Xia Xia, we don't have any other brothers in our family. It's too lonely for me to be alone. Why don't you find a son-in-law to live with us and we can live together. It will be so much fun to have a big family?"
After hearing her brother's silly words, An Zhixia lost all emotion. She wiped her snot and tears on her brother's body, chuckled twice, and walked away.
An Zhiqiu scratched his head. What does this girl mean? Is she shy?
After washing up, An Zhixia went into the house and lay down, but suddenly sat up. An Zhiqiu and Fang Hongye, they were probably destined to be a couple. As for Hongye and Zhiqiu, their marriage was already destined, and they could not escape the fate after all the twists and turns.
The village chief put his hands behind his back and stroked his pipe, thinking about what the An brothers and sisters said. Should it be that as long as the old woman and the daughter agree, the marriage can be settled? The daughter's marriage was settled overnight. He felt like a golden nugget fell from the sky, hitting his head and making him dizzy. He still hasn't recovered from it.
Thinking about the future son-in-law's appearance, figure, height, diploma, and good cooking skills, and most importantly, he is hardworking, responsible, and caring. No matter how you look at it, no worker in the town or the countryside can compare to him. He happily shook his head and hummed a little tune as he walked into the yard.
"Hey, grandpa, how much have you drunk? The family is in such a sad state, and you still have the mood to hum a little tune?" Aunt Fang, the village chief's wife, rolled up the towel in her hand and threw it over with red eyes.
All the family members were present, sitting in the main room with their heads down, waiting for him to come back and make a decision.
"Is everyone here?" The village chief raised his eyebrows and greeted them cheerfully, then sat down at his seat, took out his pipe and was about to stuff tobacco into it.
"What are you smoking?" Aunt Fang was holding her breath, and had no outlet for her anger, so she couldn't help but snatch his pipe away in anger.
"What's wrong?" The village chief was not angry. He picked up the herbal tea on the table, drank it in one gulp, and touched his mouth.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? You still ask me what's wrong? How can you be the village chief? My daughter has been humiliated once or twice, and her marriage has been delayed until now. She may not be able to get married in the future. What's wrong?"
"Didn't the food tonight have too much chili in it? Why are you so angry?" The village chief tutted his tongue in dissatisfaction. "Hasn't Hongye's matter been clarified? Everyone knows about it and they won't spread it around."
"I told you that you had a couple of glasses of wine and your brain turned into a paste. Our Hongye is fine, but everyone is very ruthless. Whatever you say changes its meaning after it goes around in their mouths. Just wait and see. In two days, some random people will come to our house to propose marriage and look down on us!"
The village chief said calmly: "Then what do you say we should do?"
"I, we just don't know what to do, so we're discussing this with you," Aunt Fang was so angry that her chest heaved. The other members of the Fang family also hated the Cui and Liu families with gnashing teeth, and they also felt sorry for Fang Hongye, the innocent person who was affected.
"Our Hongye is such a good girl, she's pretty, smart and sensible, but those people just can't stand her being good, and they throw dirty water on her again and again. No wonder she can't give birth to a grandson. Zhixia is right, even God can't stand such a heartless person!"
"Otherwise, let the younger sister live at my parents' home for a while. After people leave, everyone says they will find it boring after two days. Then we can ask the younger sister to come back. Maybe we can find someone suitable at my parents' home?" The eldest sister-in-law of the Fang family suggested hesitantly.
"Let's go to my mother's house. It's next to the county town. Maybe I can find a worker there."
"No," Aunt Fang thought for a moment and shook her head, "Your home is not far from here. What if Hongye really finds a boyfriend or gets married? What if the man is not happy after finding out about it? We are not helping her, we are harming her."
Besides, before, she wanted a worker, no matter what kind of worker. But now her daughter has become successful, managing a touring troupe of several hundred people, and her monthly salary is 60-70 yuan, not counting various bills and subsidies. How can an ordinary worker be worthy of her? She must have a house at home! This is probably what all mothers think, if their daughter is outstanding, their son-in-law must also be outstanding to be a good match.
But these days, how many men would allow their families to have a daughter-in-law who has not yet married into the family to have a bad reputation?
She's really worried so much that her hair has turned white.
Seeing his wife's face getting more and more wrinkled, the village chief didn't keep her in suspense and said directly: "Then let Hongye and Zhiqiu get married."
This sentence made everyone in the room explode. Even Aunt Fang couldn't stand it and said, "Grandpa, we can't bully people like this. Hongye said that if Zhiqiu hadn't caught her, she might have hit her head on a rock.
Besides, he ran away with her and was not caught. We can't be unreasonable and blame him.
Besides," she glanced at her daughter, and seeing that she was blushing and dazed, and obviously had some thoughts, she said with heartache and cruelty, "Didn't you say yesterday that someone was checking the files of the brother and sister? They are going back to the city. Our Hongye has a rural household registration. How will the household registration be resolved after the two of them get married?"
Fang Hongye's face turned pale and she said with difficulty, "Mom and Dad, I'm tired. I'm going to go back to my room and sleep. I know myself very well. An Zhiqing is too good. I'm not worthy of him. Don't worry about me. I'll find you a live-in son-in-law in the future."
After saying that, she covered her mouth and ran out.
"Stop, everyone is talking about you, listen to what your father says before you leave," the village chief stopped the man and said with a cold face, "What's wrong with you, you know it yourself? The high school textbooks in your room are almost torn to pieces, and the box of extracurricular books are almost turned into cotton wool. You get up in the morning to recite your lessons, and the kerosene lamp is on until three o'clock in the evening. The knowledge you have is no less than those high school students in the city.
Your excellence in the past six months is evident to everyone. If you go out now, even to Kyoto, Shanghai or Shenzhen, how many people would dare to go against their conscience and say that you are unsophisticated and ignorant?
If you look down on yourself from the bottom of your heart, fail to see your own efforts, and fail to recognize your own improvement, then even if you get married, you will not be able to put yourself on the same level as the other person, and your life will still be difficult. "
Fang Hongye's eyes were red, and she tried to hold back the tears that were about to fall. "But, but he is leaving and going back to Beijing. I, I can't hold him back."
"So you like Zhiqiu?" the village chief asked in a deep voice.
Fang Hongye pursed her lips tightly, her face suddenly glowing red, "I like you, so what? We are not a good match."
